That's it: I'm tired of seemingly everyone saying that immortality is a bad idea

I'll just out and say it: I like the idea of living forever. I've thought about it literally every day for the past 11 years (slightly more than half the time I've been alive) thinking about it, considering every angle I've come across, and my end conclusion is that it's a good idea to NEVER DIE. I plan on researching this, as I am a computer science student and plan to work on prosthetic parts for the brain in order to move someone's mind (and I mean MOVE not COPY) into cyberspace (or a robot) and have them live forever as a result.

And I am SICK AND TIRED of so many stories, views, and all the other kinds of stuff out there that say that it's a bad idea.

Now, I admit, many of my friends support my views and think it's a good idea, as well as give me some encouragement, and I like that a lot, but the fact is this; there are those who tend to keep saying that living forever is something horrid, and there's an alarming amount of stories out there that portray it as such.

This annoys me.

Now, I know anyone can write what they want, and are entitled to their own opinions. I'd just like to see a few stories (other than my own) and maybe a few journal/blog posts here and there that don't bash the idea outright.

And before any arguments start, when I say I've considered it from every angle, I mean it.

I'll go into it if someone wants me to, just please do so in a note because these discussions (and I've had tons of them over the years) tend to drag on and on, and if something personal comes up, I don't want anyone else's business made public in my blog post.
